Can they turn sbm back on
I found most of games were more even with the test they did on it seemed to work minus the swf groups I got.
Now I'm back to getting the people on a diferant skill set.

God I hope not. Some of us were not allowed to play our favorite killers because the MMR rating was too high.

I found my games more balanced with it on and it actually was better and the games were more fun.
Not you weren't allowed to play your favourite killer just clearly you have alot more to learn on that killer.

Sorry but. i don't want to keep versing people that have less than 20 hours played when i play every single killer everyday.. Not fun my guy,

You don't get it, he wasn’t allowed to play his favorite killer because queue time was hours long for high sbmm killers, not because he was not good enough...
Waiting more than 1 hour to finally get matched with a 4 man swf tournament level team is stupid and would kill the game for sure.

This games already dead

No thanks. I don't want to go against SEAL team 6 every match because I decided to play a low-tier Killer that I'm good at.

No. This game is not balanced enough for a SBM. I don't want to sweat every game just to have a chance, and in some games i don't even have a chance even if i sweat.

Yup. I know not everyone feels this way but I don’t mind the SEAL team sixes out there. Just queue me in with them.
I want to be able to play and if SBM disallows me because I got good at the game, then what’s the point of getting good at the game?

I hope it's coming back ASAP.
Playing survivor made sense for once as I was able to actually escape after holding chases and doing gens outside a chase.
During the test I only got 2 bad teams whereas now I'm back to getting almost nothing but teammates that seriously boot up the game to be afk at the start of the game OR hide in a random corner a million times per match (yes, I can see you not moving when I'm already at 50% of my first gen or derping around doing nothing. I'm running Bond at all times).
As for playing killer I had to face tournament teams and 6000+ hour Object-teams on a fairly regular basis anyway so MMR makes absolutely no negative difference for me in this regard.
If let's say a working MMR made me lose every single game at least the devs would get a more accurate look at the game's state because let's be honest:
The stats give you a ridiculously wrong idea about what the game looks like when all 4 survivors are actually good at the game.
Therefore a working MMR system may change the game for the better in the long run even if it made killer gameplay disgusting for a while.

I also think it might reduce the salt levels a bit as people will no longer be judged by what rank they are.
The ammount of times I get abuse in end game coz I'm playing like a rank10 killer even tho i win

Complete opposite scenario here.
Normally I play Spirit/Freddy/Hag, normally against red ranks, and it's a sweat fest if I care about kills, otherwise I'm just the attraction for other players to teabag and shine their flashlights at.
With SBM on, I faced players of equal skill rank with Spirit, matches were actually fun without being too easy, and when I tried a new killer I hadn't played before, I started with brown ranks, then yellow, and settled on green.

I agree normally when I play I have to sweat if I want a 4k but with sbm on i was getting the most fair games Iv ever played now I'm back to the sweaty games again.

I would not call a game with almost 40,000 players on average dead.

I'm from ESO, I played it for five years since beta. People told on the official forums that the game would be dead before the end of the year every week. I don't read the forums anymore but I'm sure they still say it. I never noticed a huge decrease in the player population during my 6k hours playtime.
I think people like to say a game is dead for no reason.

So instead the tournament level SWF team gets matched with someone who doesn´t even have the slightest chance...

It also will show who actually has skill rather than boosting there egos because they got a less skilled player

That's not how MMR should work. If queue times are disproportionately high for skilled killers the algorithm clearly needs work.
1 -
I hope they turn it back on aswell.
the only real issue was killers with an MMR that was too high. so just gonna tune in the matchmaking a bit to acomodate this.
0 -
Agreed and want to emphasize. It needs to match everyone in. If a killer is the highest SBM, they should play against the highest SBM available.
What they presented with the test was killer purgatory for playing well.
